Protect Your Everyday Debit Card Transactions by Opting in Today!

With a recent change in law members must now “opt in” for overdraft coverage. It used to be that we were allowed to pay your purchases and allow overdraft coverage to kick in. However, after August 15, 2010 we cannot pay your everyday debit card transactions unless you tell us you want overdraft coverage for these transactions.

You can take advantage of First Castle’s Courtesy Pay. Courtesy Pay is a courtesy that share draft (checking) account members can benefit from. With Courtesy Pay we may cover insufficient fund checks, electronic funds transfers, or other payment and/or withdrawal requests up to your approved limit. Courtesy Pay may save you the embarrassment and expense of a returned check when you make an honest mistake in your checkbook, have unplanned expenses, or run short on cash between paydays. Instead of returning checks unpaid, we may automatically pay them for you, up to $300.00. Please remember you must now “opt in” for this and other overdraft products to benefit from the service.

We also have several line of credit options available. Please contact us for more information.
